This morning driving to work I was rear-ended while at a red light. The driver said she looked away to adjust her radio volume and when she looked up it was too late. The lower rear bumper was ripped away from car and there is paint transfer below the license plate.
When the Deputy was done with writing up the accident report he walked over and handed me my papers, license, and accident report number, saying I could leave. I noticed as I pulled away he was walking the individual who hit me to his squad car. A few hours later the Deputy called me to let me know the driver was arrested for driving under the influence, they has admitted to smoking marijuana before leaving the house this morning. I live in Indiana where neither medical or recreational use is legal.
No one was hurt, which is what matters the most. Still very upsetting that someone's stupid decision damaged my car and now I have the extreme inconvenience of having to deal with getting it repaired. I have no idea the availability of OEM body parts in the USA.
